What is ADHD Brain Freeze + Solutions & Executive Dysfunction

In this video I'm going to teach you how to break ADHD brain freeze. ADHD brain freeze, is a symptom of the ADHD mind where you stare at a project, really wanting to begin, but you can't because your brain feels stuck. And it's similar to ADHD paralysis.

ADHD Brain Freeze is caused by the Executive Function system in the brain becoming overwhelmed and thus freezing like an overwhelmed computer.

Then that means the solutions need to be about minimizing internal mental strain by making the internal workings of the mind, external, make the mental physical.
